Dupont Circle Mansion, the Historic Patterson House, to be Converted into 92 Small Apartments, to be very Car-free Friendly

Interesting info about the transformation coming to the Patterson House in Dupont Circle from Short Articles about Long Meetings:

“More unusual are the promises to do the following:

designate a transportation management coordinator
provide a screen in a public area showing transit options
have a bicycle repair facility
provide free Capital Bikeshare memberships for non-bike-owners “for the initial term of the lease for the first five years the building is open”
have a minimum of 10 bicycle helmets on hand for resident use
give free membership to car-share services “for the initial term of the lease for the first five years the building is open”.”

Previously Urban Turf reported:

“The new plan for the historic mansion calls for just over 90 fully-furnished studios that would average about 350 square feet. The first floor of the mansion, located at 15 Dupont Circle NW, would become shared space for the building’s residents to offset the size of the apartments.”
